Exome-wide genetic risk score (ExGRS) to predict high myopia across multi-ancestry populations
30 Dec 2024
Abstract excerpt
High myopia (HM), characterized by a severe myopic refractive error, stands as a leading cause of visual impairment and blindness globally. HM is a multifactorial ocular disease that presents high genetic heterogeneity. Employing a genetic risk score (GRS) is useful for capturing genetic susceptibility to HM. This study assesses the effectiveness of these strategies via incorporating rare variations into the GRS...
